This tutorial guides users on how to host a website built with Phenomic, a new static site generator built with ReactJS, on Netlify. To set up the environment, users need to install Node.js and NPM using nvm, then create a new directory for their Phenomic site, install Phenomic, and configure it by setting up a CNAME file and installing dependencies. Next, users need to pre-prepare their build by checking which version of Node.js is supported by Netlify, creating a .nvmrc file with the desired version number, and initializing a new Git repository on GitHub. Once the repository is set up, users can connect it to Netlify, configure settings, and deploy their site using Netlify's continuous deployment feature.
